Epistemology Epistemology ( i/ɨˌpɪstɨˈmɒlədʒi/; from Greek ἐπιστήμη, epistēmē, meaning "knowledge, understanding", and λόγος, logos, meaning "word") is a term first used by the Scottish philosopher James Frederick Ferrier to describe the branch of philosophy concerned with the nature and scope of knowledge[1][2] and is also referred to as "theory of knowledge". Put concisely, it is the study of knowledge and justified belief. It questions what knowledge is and how it can be acquired, and the extent to which knowledge pertinent to any given subject or entity can be acquired. Much of the debate in this field has focused on the philosophical analysis of the nature of knowledge and how it relates to connected notions such as truth, belief, and justification. The term was probably first introduced in Ferrier's Institutes of Metaphysic: The Theory of Knowing and Being (1854), p. 46.[3] Background and meaning[edit] Knowledge[edit] Knowledge that, knowledge how, and knowledge by acquaintance[edit] Belief[edit]
de LaB The Man Who Wasn't There (2001) - Soundtracks Resonate - Platform for Art and Technology Last day in Belgrade in January 2011 and I receive a call from Maria and Jelena to quickly meet and have a quick chat before I head back to London. One coffee, two coffees and plenty of cigarettes we agree to do a festival – as simple as that. I don’t think I have ever made an important decision so quickly that has cost me endless hours of work but has had such an amazing satisfaction from seeing it through. In a nutshell this is how Resonate came to being. Looking back now at March when we officially launched the festival, all feels like one large blur. For those that might have missed it, Resonate is a new platform for networking, information, knowledge sharing and education. Today we launched Resonate Platform, a new website dedicated to opening a dialogue between Resonate audience and festival participants. 1. Resonate was one long project and it continues to be one.

Anne Frank Annelies "Anne" Marie Frank (Dutch pronunciation: [ɑnəˈlis ˈɑnə maˈri frɑŋk], German pronunciation: [anəliːs ˈanə maˈʁiː fʁaŋk], pronunciation ; 12 June 1929 – early March 1945) is one of the most discussed Jewish victims of the Holocaust. Her wartime diary The Diary of a Young Girl has been the basis for several plays and films. The Frank family moved from Germany to Amsterdam in 1933, the year the Nazis gained control over Germany. Otto Frank, the only survivor of the family, returned to Amsterdam after the war to find that Anne's diary had been saved, and his efforts led to its publication in 1947. Early life Frank was born Annelies or Anneliese Marie Frank on 12 June 1929 in Frankfurt, Germany, the second daughter of Otto Frank (1889–1980) and Edith Frank-Holländer (1900–45).

Pay-Per-View Football? BSkyB's Now TV is a Game-Changer It was a long time coming, but BSkyB finally announced a launch date for its online, pay-as-you-go TV service. It will be available in the UK from tomorrow, July 17. As we noted earlier today, Now TV poses a huge threat to the likes of LoveFilm and Netflix, with its fairly extensive collection of movies available either on a per-play basis starting at £0.99, or through an affordable-but-not-cheap £15 unlimited monthly pass. But it’s worth focusing on the other big elephant in the room. In addition to the football, this means you’ll also be able to tap England Test cricket, Heineken Cup rugby, ATP tennis and the golf Masters from Augusta. While it was already known that Now TV would include the English Premier League, there hasn’t been too much of a song-and-dance made about it thus far. The casual fan Football is the most watched sport in many parts of the world, and the UK is no different. The committed fan Sky Sports is such a lucrative product for BSkyB. The future of football
Din legendele dacilor: Zâne şi zei la cetatea Feţele Albe Apr 22, 2013 Atunci când istoria e năpădită de buruieni, rămân poveştile. De ani buni, peste 50, cetatea dacică Feţele Albe a fost lăsată în grija lăstărişului tânăr, a tufelor de mure, a urzicilor şi a mestecenilor pitici, iar din zidurile ei, încă albe, încă vii, au pornit şerpeşte, spre lumină, rădăcinile fagilor tineri. Istoria a rămas ascunsă sub pământ, iar datele concrete, puţine, vorbesc de tehnica de construcţie “murus dacicus”, întâlnită la toate fortificaţiile dacice din Munţii Orăştiei, de blocurile de calcar, de terasele stratificate, de sanctuarul circular, mistuit aproape în întregime de flăcările cuceritorilor romani. Zeiţa Bendis, zeiţa Lunii, a pădurii, a nopţii, zeiţa magică a pământului şi a fertilităţii, zeiţa dragostei şi a farmecelor. Cetatea ascunsă Tăcerea. Învăţase vreme îndelungată să tacă, să se bucure în taină de asta, deşi fusese greu, poate cea mai grea încercare pe care trebuia să o deprindă aici, în cetatea femeilor alese. Ochi.
